Twelfth Gate - Sugarcoated lyrics

Gloss over and disguise politically corrected lines

Not a matter of moral high ground

Say it like it is

Tell it like it is

Sugarcoated catchy lines

Makes it easy for you

It's hard to catch a spinning lie

But don't you think we ought to put it under a light

And watch the roaches scatter

Sugarcoated catchy lines

Makes it easy to do

But how will you feel when the term is out of style

And you're left all alone

Spin, and gloss, and twist away

The truth becomes a casualty

Selective conscious conditioning

They'll dance around the truth

Laughing all the way

Making up new moves

Take it to the bank

Say it like it is

Tell it like it is

Sugarcoated bleeding flesh

It's just your bait on a hook

What's casual about a casualty?

Explain this to me

Spin, and gloss, and twist away

The truth becomes a casualty

I have the right to choose what I want to say

For this I owe my gratitude

Thanks so much for having me

Softball censorship is way out of line

On the way, history revision

A matter of time, a matter of a crime

Take your bitter placebo to get you through your sugar-coated day
